Abstract

This paper is based on a symposium on mentoring in infant mental health that took place at the 18th World Association for Infant Mental Health (WAIMH) conference. The symposium commemorated Robert N. Emde who was one of the founders of the field of Infant Mental Health, and devoted much of his career to mentorship. From an IMH perspective, mentoring experiences are best thought of as relationships, significant for both mentor and mentee, with positive mentoring experiences crucial for the development of IMH clinicians and researchers. The symposium participants, two pairs of mentor-mentee dyads, first gave an opening statement about what mentoring meant for them generally and personally, and then addressed three issues: the goodness of fit between mentor and mentee, “light and shadow” in mentoring relationships, and balancing old wisdom with new trends in mentoring. The paper brings the participants’ views and personal experiences regarding these issues in their own words, highlighting key personal and professional issues related to mentorship from the perspectives of both mentor and mentee.

关于婴儿心理健康指导的特邀评论：纪念罗伯特-艾姆德（Robert N. Emde）研讨会。

本文是根据第 18 届世界婴幼儿心理健康协会（WAIMH）会议期间举行的婴幼儿心理健康指导专题讨论会撰写的。此次研讨会是为了纪念罗伯特-艾姆德（Robert N. Emde），他是婴儿心理健康领域的创始人之一，并将其职业生涯的大部分时间都投入到了指导工作中。从国际婴幼儿心理健康的角度来看，指导经历最好被视为一种关系，对指导者和被指导者都意义重大，积极的指导经历对国际婴幼儿心理健康临床医生和研究人员的发展至关重要。研讨会的与会者是两对指导者与被指导者组合，他们首先就指导对他们的总体意义和个人意义作了开场发言，然后讨论了三个问题：指导者与被指导者之间的良好契合度、指导关系中的 "光与影 "以及平衡指导中的旧智慧与新趋势。本文以参与者的口吻介绍了他们对这些问题的看法和个人经历，从指导者和被指导者的角度强调了与指导相关的关键个人和专业问题。

期刊介绍： The Infant Mental Health Journal (IMHJ) is the official publication of the World Association for Infant Mental Health (WAIMH) and the Michigan Association for Infant Mental Health (MI-AIMH) and is copyrighted by MI-AIMH. The Infant Mental Health Journal publishes peer-reviewed research articles, literature reviews, program descriptions/evaluations, theoretical/conceptual papers and brief reports (clinical case studies and novel pilot studies) that focus on early social and emotional development and characteristics that influence social-emotional development from relationship-based perspectives. Examples of such influences include attachment relationships, early relationship development, caregiver-infant interactions, infant and early childhood mental health services, contextual and cultural influences on infant/toddler/child and family development, including parental/caregiver psychosocial characteristics and attachment history, prenatal experiences, and biological characteristics in interaction with relational environments that promote optimal social-emotional development or place it at higher risk. Research published in IMHJ focuses on the prenatal-age 5 period and employs relationship-based perspectives in key research questions and interpretation and implications of findings.
